Far from the Madding Crowd de Thomas Hardy


Le bonheur de lire et le bonheur d'apprendre une langue étrangère ensemble ! Un très bon livre avec un vocabulaire de 1800 mots en anglais ! Allez-y ! ;)



"Bathsheba Everdene is young, proud, and beautiful. She is an independent woman and can marry any man she chooses - if she chooses. In fact, she likes her independence, and she likes fighting her own battles in a man's world. But it is never wise to ignore the power of love. There are three men who would very much like to marry Bathsheba. When she falls in love with one of them, she soon wishes she had kept her independence...."

"The sky was clear - remarkably clear - and the twinkling of all the stars seemed to be but throbs of one body, timed by a common pulse." 

Thomas Hardy : Far from the Madding Crowd
